If your child eats a big snack after they come home from school, they probably will not be hungry for a dinner served a couple hours later. Know your child s schedule and plan snacks accordingly. With junk food being so simple and quick to prepare (just open a bag), it can be easy to lose sight of the healthy snack. However, there are a few things that you can do that will make grabbing a healthy and nutritious snack as simple for your kids as opening a bag of potato chips. Kids like ready to eat things. So to help your child choose smarter snacks, stock up on pre-packaged healthier options like individual yogurt cups, granola bars, rice cakes, individually packaged fruit cups (with light syrup and no added sugars), sliced or cubed lean meats, cheese slices (look for 2% or part skim), small bags of baby carrots or celery and boxed raisins. Individualized or pre-packaged snacks are a quick and easy way to ensure your child gets the healthy foods he or she needs. Another great way to get your kids to eat healthy snacks is to involve them in the process of creating them.
